The Senate Judiciary Committee heard four bills on judicial processes: SB 38 and SB 39 (both about rules for awarding attorney fees), SB 40 (recording and public disclosure of judicial deliberations), and SB 89 (creating a DOC unit for violent-offender pre-sentence investigations). Committee members questioned scope, constitutionality, confidentiality and fiscal impacts; several unrelated bills were acted on in an executive session that followed.
